Frequently asked questions

How long does a Rheem ProTerra installation take?

A standard swap-out — removing your old water heater and installing the ProTerra in the same location — typically takes 3–4 hours. If electrical or plumbing modifications are needed, the job may extend to a full day. HeatLand provides a time estimate when booking.

What electrical supply does the Rheem ProTerra need?

The Rheem ProTerra requires a dedicated 240V / 30A circuit with a 10-2 wire run. Most BC homes built after 1990 have compatible electrical panels. If your home needs an electrical upgrade, HeatLand can coordinate with a licensed electrician.

Can the Rheem ProTerra be installed in a garage or crawl space?

The ProTerra is designed for conditioned spaces that stay above 7°C (45°F) and have at least 700 cubic feet of air volume. Unheated garages in Greater Vancouver may be too cold in winter. HeatLand assesses your installation space and recommends the best location — usually a basement utility room.

Do I need a permit to install a Rheem ProTerra in BC?

Electrical permits are required for water heater installations in BC. HeatLand handles the permit process as part of a complete installation, ensuring your unit passes inspection and your home insurance remains valid.
